BSc in Insurance Management The course aims to equip students for a variety of business careers and give a special advantage to those wishing to enter the Insurance Industry. To this end, the course offers a balanced educational programme in accordance with the general philosophy of the 21st century, and the dynamic field of Insurance.
Learning Outcomes World Insurance and its developments are tackled and comparative studies of different countries are carried out. Simultaneously, the course presents to the student the other basic functions of Insurance and general management in great depth. This programme therefore aims at giving the student the knowledge of the nature and functions of insurance; perhaps more importantly, it aims to shed light on the economic, legal and social environment in which insurance as a profession and the insurance corporations operate.
